Rogue 585 Posted August 3, 2018 Posted August 3, 2018 I'm pretty happy we're taking advantage of the Cat B option. If athletes from overseas, like Cox and the Irish, can make it, then someone who's grown up playing footy can make it. No idea who this kid is, though. Quote

Trialled at Brisbane, Adelaide, Essendon and St. Kilda before choosing Melbourne. 184cm. Likely position - half back. Lives with and best mates with Joel Smith. should have read this before I wasted my time with the Burgan interview. Did not even say his height or what type of footy player he was. 2 Quote

I'm surprised he's that short, if he was playing key position in juniors and is a fast bowler. Quote

Dee-licious 1,954 Posted August 3, 2018 Posted August 3, 2018 Only 184cm - no wonder he didn’t make it as a fast bowler. Interested to see his kicking and speed. Quote

Showing your age. The new generation of fast bowlers (Starc, Hazelwood, Cummins) all 190+. There aren’t too many kicking around Aus under 190 now. Australia’s loss our gain. Just thought we were getting a 196cm key defender - I’m happy to settle for a highly skilled half back ? 3 Quote

Yeah, Steyn is from the stone age. I picked a selection from various era's. You said 184 was to short to be much of a fast bowler. Do you reckon any of those mentioned wouldn't be as effective now?
